Initial Zoom level for Map component

[snooprussyruss]

Hi there,

Is is possible to set the initial Zoom level when using the Map component in Pages?

It works great in Classic Apps - but in Pages it Zooms in so far that you can’t even make out what is on the map. You have to either use the scroll wheel or the controls to Zoom out so you can actually see a meaningful map. Tried being less specific with the address - but that doesn’t help.

The position is pretty specific (an intersection in a residential neighbourhood), so the map, even in “Near” position, isn’t super clear from a user perspective. If the zoom level could be set manually when the map is added (basically zoom in or out to position and then save that position for display in the app), then I think it would be more …
